I let Discover handle updating to Fedora 42 and got a kernel panic error, so I backed up /home/ and did a fresh install of Fedora 42.
I started my restoration by nuking /home/ with sudo rm -R /home/
and then copied everything over via Dolphin as stuff was slowly torn asunder as parts unloaded from RAM. Everything seems intact so far…
I had started with a full disk clone which is why I was careless with the restoration
